It seems the 370 forum members have different tastes then the 350 forums.

Thanks guys I appreciate the compliments. I really thought about/want some 19" 1pc. forged but I think these will work with the right size tires. I'm just worried about the offset on the front after getting the wider tires and a drop. Hope it works out !

As far as taste goes..they'll come around !

As far as Im concerned all you need is a good drop and around -2.5 camber set in the front and back. That should get the tires under the car a little. Just get some 20mm spacers to put in the back so its more aggressive.

I'm a self proclaimed wheel whore/addict, but for some reason, I can't pinpoint what I'm not feeling about this setup.

There is just something slightly off... maybe it's just the pictures.

Good deal, throw some pics up when you do. I was at work is why the cops are around. I took them at the P.D. parking lot before I headed out for the day.

B1nks -

dont listen to others uninformed advice on offset! You HAVE chosen the right offset for an agressive fitment on a LOWERED 370. The rears can even go out another 10mm or so. The look is deceiving now bc your car is at stock height...so everyone that doesnt know better says OMG you got the wrong offset blah blah. Once you lower the Z the wheels will tuck right in and be flush. I have noticed most guys on this forum go for weak offsets and end up with the "sunken in wheel syndrome" look lol.

Case in point, look at this guys setup with the same exact size/fitment as yours...when it was stock height it looked off, when lowered it tucked right in ---> Jason's Z

Thanks for the compliment Jmlenz ! We'll see how it turns out if I have them long enough. I have them up for sale 2k for the wheels and tires are 700 but it's mainly because I want something lighter or where I can fit more tire because I am concerned that I won't be able to fit the tire sizes I want without rubbing and ****..we'll see. ! Thanks for the props.
